After a sequence of Beckley’s going under, and Mabel having close contact, have done LFT to Mabel today. Positive. My last LFT pack but assume I have it. Neither of us have any symptoms but Alice is suffering so I will take Mabel back tomorrow morning. Bank Holiday today, back to work tomorrow.

Bit miffed tbh, Alice knew that almost all Mallard’s household had tested positive. Charlie, Bertie, Una, but let Mabel come over for the weekend. In my view purely so they could have New Year weekend, then test after. So exposing me. Should have kept Mabel.

We had a chilled weekend. Saw Clifford the big red dog, brilliant. First time I have heard her laugh in a grown up kind of way.

Sales shopping. Lego, drawing. David Bowie. Too much pad, resolution this year, more outdoors and movement.
